DESCRIPTION/BACKGROUND:
On November 15, 2022, the County approved Coyote Crossings Holdings, LLC. Planned Unit Development (PUD) Modification Amending the Master Plan for Commerce Park South PUD. Resolution No. 22-R-576 outlines the PUD approval conditions, of which condition 11 requires a connection from the west side of the PUD to the adjoining Marion Oaks Subdivision. The applicant has worked with County Staff and has identified the most feasible route to be through parcel 8009-1277+13, a platted county-maintained Drainage Retention Area (DRA), recorded in plat book O, page 164.
As the DRA was not previously envisioned to be an access location, portions of the plat that limit its use only as a DRA must be vacated. Before vacating said plat, the Office of the County Engineer is requesting that the Board adopt the included Resolution pursuant to Section 95.361(2), Florida Statutes which formalizes that the DRA is deemed dedicated to the County and the County holds fee simple title to the DRA. The plat vacate will be brought back to the Board at a future date.
The Resolution also authorizes the recording of a maintenance map which is, under the Statute, “prima facia evidence” of the dedication. While it is not necessary that such a map be recorded in order for the dedication to be effective, the County Engineer does recommend that it be authorized.
BUDGET/IMPACT:
None
